7 0

Answer:

Oxidation reaction

Explanation:

When flame comes in contact with gasoline in the presence of oxygen, combustion takes place. Oxidation reaction involves reacting oxygen with a compound. To stop fire, we can stop the oxidation process by adding carbon (iv) oxide since it does not support combustion. Hence the reason why CO2 is used to stop flames.

Water has a heat of fusion of about 300J/gram and a heat capacity for liquid water of a about 4J/gC. How much heat is needed to
amm1812

Answer:

The total heat required is 3.4 kJ

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

There is a direct proportional relationship between heat and temperature. So, the amount of heat a body receives or transmits is determined by:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case you know;

  • Q= ?
  • c= 4 \frac{J}{g*C}
  • m= 10 g
  • ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 10 C - 0 C= 10 C

Replacing:

Q= 4\frac{J}{g*C} *10 g * 10 C

Solving:

<em>Q1= 400 J</em>

On the other hand, you must determine the heat required to convert 0 ∘ C of ice to 0 ∘ C of liquid water by:

Q2=m*heat of fusion

Q2=10 g* 300 \frac{J}{g}

<em>Q2= 3,000 J</em>

The total heat required is:

Q= Q1 + Q2= 400 J + 3,000 J

Q= 3,400 J= 3.4 kJ (1 kJ= 1,000 J)

<u><em>The total heat required is 3.4 kJ</em></u>

How are plate tectonics and the rock cycle connected
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

All igneous rocks the basis of the rock cycle are formed by plate tectonics. ... The heat from the mantle that fuels plate tectonics causes both igneous and sedimentary rocks to be turned into metamorphic rocks. The metamorphic rocks can be eroded into sedimentary rocks are remelted back into igneous.

Calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) Ca:H:C:O = 1:2:2 ___ Lithium sulfide (Li:2s) Li:S = 2:__
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: The ratio of atoms in calcium bicarbonate ; Ca : H : C : O = 1:2:2:6.

The ratio of atoms in lithium sulfide; Li : S = 2 : 1

Explanation:

In calcium bicarbonate:Ca(HCO_3)_2

In a molecular formula of calcium carbonate there are:

Number of Calcium atoms = 1

Number of Hydrogen atom = 1 × 2 = 2

Number of Carbon atoms = 1 × 2 = 2

Number of Oxygen atoms = 3 × 2 = 6

So, Ca : H : C : O = 1 : 2 : 2 : 6

In lithium sulfide :Li_2S

In a molecular formula of lithium sulfide there are:

Number of Lithium atoms =  1 × 2 = 2

Number of Sulfur atoms = 1

So, the Li : S = 2 : 1
